Which way?’, holding her hand on top of her head to feel which way it was growing; and she was quite surprised to find that she remained the same size. To be sure, this is what generally happens when one eats cake; but Alice had got so much into the way of expecting nothing but out-of-the-way things to happen, that it seemed quite dull and stupid for life to go on in the common way. Lewis Carroll
I'd give all the wealth that years have piled, the slow result of life's decay, To be once more a little child for one bright summer day. Lewis Carroll
